But now I find that I would like to write a few windows GUI programs,  and well... I'm clueless... I never learned windows GUI programming and don't have a clue about how it's done, it's always been faster and easier to just keep doing what I already understand, but now I have a few applications to write what would be much better suited to a native windows application, so,   I am wondering if there are any tutorials out there, hopefully specific to Freepascal and/or Lazarus.  I need really basic stuff like how to open a message box, or how to use windows file open, or save-as dialog boxes.. etc.. even a hello world tutorial would be helpful... ok, so ZERO windows programming experience here...   Any advice on where to start?

Looks useful.
